<h1>Format: Graph dialog box: Axes tab</h1>
<p>Format the axes on a graph using the Axes tab in the Format: Graph dialog 
 box. (If DHTML is disabled, you use the Format: Graph panel.)</p>
<p>The following settings are available: </p>
<ul type="disc" class="whs1">

 scale of the graph next to the Y1-axis. You can override the automatically 
 generated values by specifying the following: </p></li>
		<ul type="circle" class="whs4">
			
<li class=p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Maximum Value</B></span>:
